Back in 1995, there was a disaster that should have prepared us for January 6th and the political violence that we’re seeing today: the Oklahoma City Bombing. Journalist Jeffrey Toobin reveals the story behind Timothy McVeigh, the Oklahoma City Bombing, and right-wing extremism in America - how a decorated army veteran became consumed with rage, how he somehow went underground and built a bomb that ...

Insane or Evil? The 1901 Murder of Emily Chapman at Hindhead
News of the Times | Episode 524 | 1901
Was it madness — or murder?
In the summer of 1901, the quiet village of Grayshott awoke to a scene of unimaginable horror. Emily Chapman, a mother of five, lay dead — brutally attacked in her own home. The killer? Her husband Walter: sub-postmaster, cabinet-maker, and now accused murderer.
This episode of News of the Times explores one of Edwardian England’s most shocking domestic tragedies. Using historical newspapers, eyewitness accounts, and courtroom testimony, we ask the haunting question: was Chapman truly insane… or simply evil?
🔪 A chilling case of jealousy, delusion, and violence
🧠 Did the court get it right—or miss the deeper truth?
📜 Original reports, strange confessions, and forgotten headlines
📍Also in today’s Further Particulars:
What happens when a best man kisses the bride a bit too soon in 1890s Essex? Clerical outrage, of course.
